Getting Healthy: I Had What I Needed All Along
It’s been 4 months since I started trying to get healthy. I wanted to lose weight and take better care of myself. I was resolved to change my diet, but I just did not want to exercise.

I had planned to get some small projects done when I got home from all of my travels, but instead I mostly listened to my kids tell me stories they made up and ask me if I know where their toothpaste went.
This week I hit the 50# weight loss mark. I am stunned. I would not have believed that I could do that. I have struggled for so many years to get a handle on my weight and to be 100% honest, I didn’t think I had the stamina to do it.
I just got home from 5 days of adventure and sadness. It was a weird, but sweet weekend at the Allume conference.
Week 3 of the “Lisa is way too busy” season is behind me. We had our Winter Summit planning retreat here this weekend and it was fabulous! You don’t want to miss this event!
I took 3 of my daughters to the Women of Faith Convention on Friday and Saturday. It was supposed to be my older 3 girls and my mom going with me, but as God knows what He’s doing plans changed and it ended up being my 3 younger girls.
Don’t try this at home kids…..
On Saturday morning I was off for the day with my 17 year old daughter Faith to see what goodness we could find at Round Top. We always have a fun time together and laughed pretty much the whole way.
These cooler mornings are challenging me to find things to wear that are cool enough for the morning and warm enough for the afternoon. So I’m embracing the vest. It say, “My body is warm but I’m OK with my arms being cold.”
Sunday we had set aside for a family work day outside. The weather was fan-tabulous and we all enjoyed being out there. We pulled weeds and cleaned the pool and picked up rocks in the field.
